Since we argue so much about what is truth here biblically speaking and in doing so in reference to Ancient Egypt I knew the truth had to lie somewhere. Give this a good read as it lead's from one and into the other like a free flow; including the topic of the Exodus.
Hope you enjoy the sharing and the caring.

That is extremely interesting, it provided a liot of information which I did not know about before, for example I never really knew why the Hyksos had settled in Egypt. If the article is correct then it is a pretty big turn around for Jewish history, having their ancestors as the oppressors of the poor Egyptians, who also happened to have a flair for cruelty and a plethora of Gods.

All men are created equal in the eye's of God, God's and Goddess's this is truth of the Bible. Sort of remind's me of slavery of the black's during our time's....it is never right not to Love one another. Ever think about the time's we live in and why there is still so much war? Think maybe the heaven's are storming as well?

The Hyksos did not stage an invasion, but came into Egypt first as or tribes of Canaanite peoples, fleeing their own country and establishing themselves in the fertile Delta region in the late 17th Dynasty. Slowly, they took over power from the Egyptians, establishing their own rule, more or less in the Delta region. In the early 18th Dynasty, the Taos family, established in Thebes, united the country and drove the "hated Hyksos" from Egypt, establishing the 18th Dynasty.

I've always thought the EXODUS happened before Rameses II remember there was a 40
year spand, between when Moses left for Midian and came back to Egypt.
Consideringthe short life expectancy, there could have have been a whole load of pharaohs between
that time. The one who was during the 10 plagues, is probably a relatively unknown
pharaoh. I could see the people in Ancient Egypt, being quit upset with the distruction
that he brought down on his country, so he was probably written off as a heredic. Since
from the bible we know he drowned, there'd be no evidence of the body (unless they still
decided to take it out and mummify it).

By the way why do the always link the EXODUS pharaoh (during the 10 plagues) as being
Rameses II? what proof shows it was him? I mean he lived so long, that I would think he'd
be the least likely candidate for being the pharaoh during that time?

I dont personally do not think there is any substantial evidence for the Exodus, and if there is let me know, I will review and coincide if shown that there is. Bible references are fine to ascertain specifics but not a absolute there in bible is god word so it is so type stuff I will just ignore.
